A copper-catalyzed arylation of tryptamines for the direct synthesis of aryl pyrroloindolines [PDF]
An operationally simple, copper-catalyzed arylation of N-tosyltryptamines provides direct access to C3-aryl pyrroloindolines. A range of electron-donating and electron-withdrawing substituents is tolerated on both the indole backbone and the aryl ...

Integrated catalysis opens new arylation pathways via regiodivergent enzymatic C–H activation
Biocatalysis and metal catalysis often provide complimentary reactivities and selectivities. Here, the authors exploit the regioselectivity of an enzymatic C–H activation followed by palladium catalysed carbon-carbon bond formation in one pot, with ...
